Infrared transmission spectroscopy_of_the_exoplanets
This document summarizes the results of infrared transmission spectroscopy of the exoplanets HD 209458b and XO-1b using the Hubble Space Telescope's Wide Field Camera 3 instrument. Key findings include:
- Both planets exhibited water absorption of approximately 200 ppm at the peak water absorption wavelength of 1.38 microns.
- The water absorption measured for XO-1b contradicts stronger absorption reported from previous observations using a different instrument.
- The weak water absorption measured for HD 209458b is consistent with previous observations of weak molecular absorption features for this planet.
- Model atmospheres including uniformly distributed extra opacity can approximately account for the water measurements as well as previous sodium absorption measurements for
Rocket and fuse_observations_of_ic405_differential_extinction_and_fluorescent...
The document describes rocket and FUSE observations of the emission/reflection nebula IC 405. The observations show that the ratio of nebular surface brightness to stellar flux (S/F*) increases by about two orders of magnitude towards the blue end of the far-UV bandpass. Scattering models fail to reproduce this "blue rise" effect. FUSE spectroscopy reveals a rich fluorescent molecular hydrogen spectrum north of the star. The observations suggest that uncertainties in nebular geometry and dust clumping are likely responsible for the blue rise, rather than fluorescent H2 emission. If IC 405 was spatially unresolved, it would appear to have less dust extinction than observed.
Open System Engineering Environment An Integrated Solution
Automotive and Aerospace industry are building complex systems and products from a number of supplied components (SW and HW). These products often have long development lifecycles and have stringent requirements for verification, traceability, and document deliverables. OSEE is being developed to provide an integrated solution for lean engineering across the complete product life-cycle. The application framework has as core functionalities a persistence layer that provides a dynamic data model, advanced version control capabilities, and powerful search capabilities. This talk provides an overview of the OSEE Application Framework. There will be a BOF session in the evening for further discussion on the topic.

A New Perspective on IT Governance in SMEs
The document presents a perspective on IT governance in small and medium enterprises (SMEs). It discusses how existing IT governance principles are better suited for large organizations rather than SMEs due to SMEs having less separation between ownership and control, and being more influenced by the CEO's personal beliefs. New findings from research on IT governance in SMEs in 22 countries show that while IT is important for innovation, benefits are hard to measure and strategic thinking on IT follows a bottom-up rather than top-down approach. The conclusions suggest existing IT governance models may be too mechanistic and formal for SMEs, and that an approach focusing more on people would be better suited.

New Technology 2017 L04 Exponential World
For the most time of human history, life was local and linear. Local in the way that anything that happened was close by, a least within a walking distance. Linear in the way that your life was the same as your parents and your children. Nothing changed.
Just like the evolution of man, technology improvements follow an evolutionary progress. New ideas or products are to begin with immature and fragile with slow improvements. Then the progress accelerates until the products become mature and taken for granted. Then the cycle repeats and a new layer of technology is added to the previous. This process is exponential. One such observation of exponential is Moore’s Law.
We will explore what exponential means. We look at Moore´s law and The Law of the Accelerating returns.

Nuclear Essay
The UK's civil nuclear industry began in 1946 with the establishment of one of the world's first nuclear power plants in 1956. This initial reactor was called MAGNOX due to its fuel cladding, and used natural uranium metal and graphite bricks to generate thermal energy. Currently the UK has 15 operating reactors producing 8883 MWe total, with 14 being Advanced Gas-cooled Reactors (AGRs) and 2 Pressurized Water Reactors. AGRs are the UK's most dominant reactor, improving upon the early MAGNOX design with increased efficiency and steam temperatures. The key differences between MAGNOX and AGR reactors impact the reactor design.

The document summarizes the early development of nuclear power, including key events like the first nuclear chain reaction in 1942 and the world's first nuclear power plant in 1957. It then discusses the growth of nuclear power in the 1960s-70s, challenges in the late 1970s after Three Mile Island, and renewed interest in nuclear power since the 1990s due to concerns over energy supply, climate change and peak oil. The document advocates for developing safer nuclear technologies like Gen 3+ reactors to help meet the world's increasing clean energy needs.
The nuclear power plant
The document discusses how nuclear power plants generate electricity through nuclear fission. It explains that nuclear power plants heat water into steam using nuclear fuel rods, which then turns turbines that generate electricity by spinning magnets near copper wires. While nuclear energy offers a clean alternative to fossil fuels, it also poses risks of accidents like those at Chernobyl and Fukushima, where damage to reactor cores caused radiation leaks. The document provides context on worldwide use of nuclear power as of 2013.
Is nuclear energy solution to our power problems ?
Nuclear energy originates from splitting uranium atoms through fission. At nuclear power plants, fission is used to generate heat and produce steam to power turbines and generate electricity. Construction costs for plants are very high but operating costs have decreased over time. Nuclear power produces radioactive waste that remains dangerous for hundreds of thousands of years, and accidents like Chernobyl show the risks of contamination.

This document provides an overview of the history of robotics and automation. It discusses early examples from ancient Greece like the Antikythera device and automatons built in medieval times. Key developments include da Vinci's designs for humanoid robots in 1495, Pascal and Morland's early calculating machines in the 1600s, and automatons built as toys in the 18th century. The terms "robot" and "robotics" were coined in the 1920s. Early 20th century innovations included programmable machines and Westinghouse's humanoid robot ELEKTRO. Isaac Asimov introduced the three laws of robotics in 1942 and used the term "robotics" to describe the field.

Oral higiene
Good oral hygiene involves brushing teeth, gums, and tongue at least twice daily using toothpaste or dentifrice to remove plaque and food debris. Flossing is also important for cleaning between teeth. Poor oral hygiene allows bacteria to build up and cause issues like gingivitis, periodontal disease, dental decay, and bad breath. Proper brushing and flossing techniques are needed to effectively clean the entire mouth.

Blue zones
The document discusses the Blue Zones, which are regions where people live the longest. It identifies five specific Blue Zones regions - Sardinia, Italy; Okinawa, Japan; Loma Linda, California; Icaria, Greece; and Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica. These regions share nine characteristics like family, faith, lifelong work, and plant-based diets that are believed to contribute to the residents' exceptional longevity. Adopting these "Power 9" lifestyle traits can potentially help people gain up to 10 extra healthy years of life.
